Tech executive Andy Byron was caught on a jumbotron at a Coldplay concert embracing a woman reported to be his company's chief human resources officer. The woman in question, Kristin Cabot, has subsequently deleted her LinkedIn profile. Newsweek contacted Astronomer for comment via email on Friday outside regular working hours.

Byron is married to Meg Kerrigan Byron, who subsequently deleted her Facebook page. Cabot has been married to Andrew Cabot, the CEO of Privateer Rum, although the current state of that marriage is not clear. It's the moment that launched a thousand memes, give or take a few.

A 20-second cuddle at a Coldplay concert turned two anonymous executives into global villains, and a viral cautionary tale about power, privacy, and the wrath of the internet.
